Or, if you want to do it cheaper, for 3500 USD, there's the new Suhr Standard Legacy series:

Guy recently revealed it was used on Railroad Worksong. I always thought it was the MK1.

I read somewhere he used it a lot in the Willy de Ville record.

Also we know he used it on "Vic and Ray".
You might get lucky, now and then

Wow, the object of my dreams, but I guess I have to dream on.

So the bottom line is, Pensa — guitars for guitar collectors, Suhr — guitars for musicians. Pensa-Suhr are guitars for Mark Knopflers :lol

Gotta admit I'm not a fan of glossy black guitars because it's as close to fingerprint, dust, and grime magnet as it gets. Few things in this world are more repulsive than grimy and dusty black guitar. Looks amazing in pictures and in fine collections tho.

So you all say that THIS guitar was used on all those songs? That Water of Love rendition alone would be worth it. But it's not the original, isn't it?
